Search Island Cove Inns

"Comfy bed. Big room. Wish I'd had more time to hang out and explore."

"We received a warm welcome from the proprietors in spite of the fact that we arrived early, and they were in the throes of vacuuming. They recommended an excellent local cafe for lunch, and later in the evening shared their outdoor space and conversation over a glass or two of wine. Thanks for a fabulous newfie welcome!"

"Great character home with gracious hosts. A great choice if staying in Harbour Grace. "

"Absolutely charming! I always pull for young energetic business owners. You are doing a great job!"

"Tammy was awesome!"

"We had a wonderful time with this cottage as our jumping off point to explore all that Newfoundland has to offer. Icebergs, whales, hiking, and friendliness everywhere we turned. It was a magical week that we won't soon forget!"

"Charming character home with a very nice homemade breakfast and cute details throughout. Tod was a great host. Walking distance from the brewery. Roman was very small but to be expected. Lovely!"

"Comfortable and easy walk to waterfront"

"A brand new salt box house: it's bright, airy, got loads on windows, and fabulous ceilings (yes, ceilings: I'm a bit of architecture nerd). Visitors should be aware that a salt box design requires a steep staircase, and, yes, the staircase is steep. It's also extremely well lit, girded with rails, and designed with good deep steps with raised edges. I felt safe on it, even when my arthritis meant I had to walk sideways down the steps with both hands on the rail. The house itself is lovely and snug, very desirable when you're perched on the side of a cliff -- it can get really window. If needed, the propane fireplace warms up quickly. And speaking of the cliff: the view! Oh, the view out the back, easily enjoyed from the wide deck, serves up everything I love best about Newfoundland: the ocean and rock that feel so ancient and strong, and the sky never still, even when it's all blue. And the fresh air? A tonic, an utter tonic. "
